34073 '249 Squadron' (currently at rileys) was partly dismantled and stripped of her drive gear to rebuild Tangmere.

That is correct. This was after 34067 "wrapped herself up" and made a mess of her own.

I like this much better than the close-crop shot. Gives the loco room to breathe, space-wise. +fav.

Is it lack of steam, time or effort, the reason you haven't seen others ?
